I fucked up, i fucked up bad. Billies parents hate me, they think i'm a ungrateful brat that's bad for their daughter. How do i change their minds? How do i prove that i'm not a bad person?

"Can you sing a lullaby?" I asked tilting my head up so my chin is on Billies stomach, so i can look her in the eyes. "Of course honey, what lullaby?" She asked with a sweet smile. "Hush little baby please" I said kissing her stomach. "Okay"

"Hush, little baby, don't you cry; Your princess gonna sing you a lullaby.
Hush little baby don't say a word; Your princess gonna buy you a mockingbird.
If that mockingbird won't sing, Your princess gonna buy you a golden ring.
If that golden ring turns to brass, Your princess gonna buy you a looking glass.
If that glass begins to crack,
Your princess gonna buy you a jumping jack.
If that jumping jack is broke,
Your princess gonna buy you a velvet cloak.
If that velvet cloth is coarse,
Your princess gonna buy you a rocking horse.
If that rocking horse won't rock, Your princess gonna buy you a cuckoo clock.
If that cuckoo clock won't tick, Your princess gonna buy you a walking stick.
If that walking stick falls down, you'll still be the sweetest little baby in town"

Billies voice started drifting away as my eyes got heavier and heavier.

I woke up by the sound of glass breaking next to my ear. My eyes snapped open, i sit up straight and bring my hand to my ear just to find it soaked in blood. I look up at the person who threw the glass and like always their she was.

Ava my girlfriend, we have been dating for about five months now and it started good. She was always sweet and nice but as the time went by she started showing her real self. She gets agitated by every word that leaves my mouth and every movement i make.

She throws sharp shit at me and punches or cut me if i talk back. People i've talked with have said that i should leave her and that it's a toxic relationship but it isn't toxic if your partner is just showing you what you deserve.

Your partner is supposed to show you how much you're worth, if Ava believes that i'm worth this then she most be right. That's why i must be kind and respectful towards her, so i can earn her appreciation.

If getting woken up to glass shattering at my ear is what i have to live with to earn her respect then that's what i'll do. If i bleed out then at least i did it for her, then at least i'm not worthless freak who don't deserve anything in this world that died for nothing. Maybe then i'll earn her respect and admiration.

"GET UP FREAK, WE'RE GOING TO MY PARENTS HOUSE AND I SWEAR TO FUCKING GOD, IF YOU FUCK UP THAT'S THE LAST THING YOU'LL DO!" She yelled slamming the door.

A ringing noise started playing in my ear as i started getting a bit lightheaded. I pushed past the pain and ringing and started getting ready, i took a shower washed my hair, got dressed, brushed my teeth and then walked down the stairs to see Ava waiting for me.

"Fucking finally, you took forever" She rolled her eyes. "Sorry Ava" I replied. She rolled her eyes again and walked out the door.
-

"WHAT THE FUCK DID I SAY" Ava yelled at me thrusting the blade of her saw toothed dagger into my stomach. "Please Ava i'm sorry i didn't mean to screw up" I cried in pain. "Well you did" She said twisting the knife making the teeth of the blade scrape my insides.

I let out another scream in pain, tear flooding down my cheeks, blood gushing out of my stomach, sobs leaving my throat. I started hyperventilating as the immense pain rushed through my veins at my stomach to the rest of my body.
